Think of it like a triangle.
The flagpole is vertical and is at 90° to the ground. This makes a right-angle to the ground, which is flat.
Since we have two sides of the triangle already, and they are in a ratio of ?? : 16 : 20 = ?? : 4 : 5, that means that because the triangle is a right-angled triangle, the third and last side must be 3 to complete the ratio! (This is called 'Pythagoras')
Since the other sides were divided by 4 to get the simple ratio, we must multiply 3 to get the actual ratio! 3 × 4 = 12 ft tall flagpole.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a.- slope= 36
Interpretation : The cable car travels 36 meter per minute
b.- y = 36x + 100
c.- 640 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
a.-
Find slope using the slope formula :
Plug in the two given points:
Subtract the numbers :
Reduce the fraction : 36
b.-
Using the given y-interspet (100) and the slope create an equation: y = 36x + 100
c.-
Using the equation you created plug in 15 for x to find the
distance: y = 36 (15) + 100
Multiply the numbers : y = 540 + 100
Add the numbers : y = 640
